AMD Athlon 64 3700+ processor (Clawhammer, 2.4 GHz)

Again, as above i have a Compaq Presario with an AMD Sempron 3100+ that i was wondering if i can upgrade to a faster chip.... if this is possible, what info do i need to find on my system, and how, and where might i find this chipset?? Any help would be appreciated!! thanx.

Which model Presario in particular do you have? IIRC, the Sempron series ranged from Socket A to 939, but I'm pretty sure the 3100+ was a S754 model.

Get the model and check on Compaq's site, or post the model number here, and I can take a look to find out what series it was exactly.

A "retail box" processor will almost always include the manual, processor, and cooling solution. An OEM processor would not. :-)
